10 minute Filigree

Hello!

Continuing my love affair with Filigree, I made a card for 10 Minute Craft Dash #19. I added that little love heart from one of the other sentiments. I just stuck some washi over the bit I didn't want on the stamp, inked up, removed the washi, and stamped it where I wanted it. :-)

I used Mama Elephant Filigree stamps. Colours are SU! Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, and Pool Party. Twine is Caribbean by The Twinery.

I think this may be my fastest card EVER. How is it possible to make such a pretty card in 4 1/2 minutes? Only a couple of years ago, this card would have taken me at least an hour. I've come a little way over time. :-)

I am feeling like a bit of a hero, for the entire time I was trying to conceive and stamp this card, I had a five year old velcroed to my elbow (the one I was working with). It's amazing I lined ANY stamps up, let alone making a smudgeless card, LOL!

Thanks for coming to visit me! I have a busy few days ahead, so it may be a little while before I return with another card... but then, you never know when I might sneak to my craft table.

I am so impressed- a beauty within 5 minutes? Now that isn't a time I see very often in my challenge! :) Love that filigree, the little rhinestone additions and that adorable heart. Not to mention you did this with a kiddo on your arm. Bravo!

I'm so thrilled you joined along in the 10 Minute Craft Dash. Hope to see you for the next challenge!
